2000 AD #403

Judge Dredd dominates this February 1985 cover of 2000 AD Prog 403, rendered by Brian Bolland with his characteristically precise linework — the armored lawman looms large against a Mega-City skyline, armed and grimly determined, declaring "I'll make those creeps sing!" The bold header teases a mega-plan revealed and a judge acquiring a criminal record, promising the kind of audacious storytelling that made this weekly anthology essential reading. Inside, Gerry Finley-Day and Cam Kennedy continue "Re-Gene" with Part 3: "Bits and Pieces!" — and the corner box hint about the Fink Brothers adds another layer of intrigue to an already packed issue.
